Indian Pizza

This is not a new dish for us but I thought it was worth reposting, plus we've made a few changes to it.
Indian Pizza
Matt started with our favorite pizza dough recipe from Wisebread. This time he replaced 1/3 of the all-purpose flour with whole wheat flour. He added a large pinch of garam masala & another of garlic powder to flavor the crust. This created a nice crisp crust though we felt it could use a bit more salt.

For the sauce he used this Indian BBQ Sauce from Bon Appétit. Then he added some grated Monterey Jack, I would have preferred Fontina but the grocery store only had a very expensive one on hand. On top of the cheese, Matt piled some juilienned carrots, sliced zucchini, chopped scallions & some leftover chicken cut into chunks. Such a tasty, different take on pizza.

Looks fantastic. I'll have to try this on my "cheat" night. Not that it's bad in any sense, just watching my carbs! Thank you for sharing!

there's a San Francisco restaurant that makes this only they use naan bread for the crust. Yum!

I bet a dollop of mango chutney would be divine on it, too.

Indian pizza sounds like a great idea. I love to mix up flavors like that. And I'm with Carolyn, mango would be incredible with the rest of those ingredients.

Yummy! This looks awesome! I bet this would be good if you substituted naan for pizza crust.

Shelby said...

This looks awesome and I'm sure it was!!

this does sound tasty, and it's so inventive! i think kirby's onto something with his suggestion to use naan.

I'm surprised NYC hasn't really caught onto the indian pizza craze...

I am not a pizza expert either. I like pizza with chilled beer. Once I tried Gotham pizza with my colleague. I find Romario pizza tastier and soft too.
